"Real mellow sounds"

[TheJamyro]

sensual♫♫♪

[MrJamirolover]

WONDERFUL

[7fixsfj3]

I was in elementary school when this album was new! I remember my dad playin' this on the ol' stereo. I REALLY like Bob James' solo on this song.

[Ms325i]

There is another version posted without the annoying and unnecessary hip hop intro

[emperorhotep]

mikey rocks. 

[oRuTRa45]

Idris Muhammad with Grover Washington, Jr., Randy Brecker, Bob James, Gary King, Joe Beck, and Ralph MacDonald. Giants, baby. Giants. And it don't get more mellow than this.

[assassinchief]

I've owned about three copies of this on vinyl over the years and this is definitely my favorite track. Everyone's solos were fantastic......

[KillaAvon]

i listen hip hop but the intro of jay z sucks

[Capone2884]

Idris Muhammad along with greats like Bob James, Grover Washingtom. Eric Gale, Bob King some of the best in Jazz music. Art Farmer truly one awsome trumpet player, great music, of the 70's..

[anahowana]

MAY ALLAH BLESS U MAN)))) thank you idriss for such fantastic&mature tune!!!!

[sometimes350]

We was sleeping on brother Muhammad.......he been in the mist of the greats......that's why it's not a surprise about his talents

[techxdabruiser]

[MrBoulderdash2]

fantastique !

[dannyboy2225]

AGREEd IN WHOLE the 'rap "throws it off and adds nothing.

[dannyboy2225]

,,,the generic rap is not on the original,since this predates commercial "rap music "[sugar hill gang] by 5 years,,,

[cartoonist1975]

these 70s songs shine on their own. couldn't of said it any better ! @thefunkyphantom69

[IliketoGHOSS]

Madlib

[DJDesikari]

This is back when music was actually MADE not pressed into machines.

[thefunkyphantom69]

that rap song at the beginning needs to go.....these 70s songs shine on their own.

[Terrra91]

:O

nuff said

[CITYGROUPTV]

the same drum he used for nutelus i guess this album was tapped in the same session the album 1,2 and3 from bob james were. damm!!

[thatnugguh]

Come on people...the rap at the beginning isn't that bad to where everyone has to comment on it...Smh enjoy what you came to enjoy....

[leoandpisces]

is he a terrorist ?

i dont think so

stop the war against muslim people

[sjukgymnast]

hey, those who disrespect hiphop, don't litsen to soul, cuz hip hop IS soul! maby not the new commersial shit, but hip hop the the mpc style beats and all that, man don't disrespect that... it may be another generation for you, but still, funk is soul, otis redding is soul, an HIP HOP is soul, brotha!

peace

[taiyo06]

the rap at the beginning- stop that okay?

[Chalenger303]

To really appreciate this song, you have to listen to it in FULL STEREO sound. The bass player on this piece made it for me. The laid back style is straight up.

[vscol]

This reminds me of all the pimp flicks Ive ever seen(lol). This song is deep and I love the fact that it changes my mood everytime I hear it. I love the solo's as well, deep.

[btinsley1]

Crap defiled masterpiece

[maccagrabme]

What was that rubbish at the beginning?

[gavhenrad]

bollocks

[rtoriq]

Prolly my favorite joint by him....smoother than buttercream....

[DocHallux]

you don't need drugs to make music from the soul. or to enjoy it.

[outdarez]

for the english heads this was a a sample for a drum n bass track..16 secs - 39 secs used. THIS IS PURE BRILLIANCE..oh yeah its time to start collecting again VINYL ONLY.

[SoulFunkAndGroooves]

Una de las grabaciones más antiguas con un exponente acid jazz muy ámplio.

[jkrush]

This music was made for Detroit cruisin with the fam in the 70s and early 80s. Much appreciate this here!!

[dondi173]

This music goes way beyond drugs..This music is spirtual

[dub2]

The best music drugs could make!!

[murdawg187]

[kehagias45]

[DocHallux]

[multipoly210]

@ispitthetruth fuck yess

[kevman77]

I would sample the stuffin' out of this track. Nice post.

[laphound]

I heard these from cti in the 70's on the radio. Now I have the cd and keep it in the car. I never get tired of hearing it.

[FuckHolmes]

i like it

gotta love the horns

[ma1971]

Beautiful!! Took me out of the crap of reality for 10mins!!! thanks for the upload

[kearlstig1961]

I listened to Idris Muhammad's music when I was in high school, around 1976. Brings back the best of memories.

[MsTexas73]

THIS...is REAL Nice...that CTI formula is FORSERIOUSLY workin' here....yes Yes...and My Man Grover...*sigh*.

[VAR1UM]

Why did you open the video with an airplane over a city followed up with a muslim?! lol

[drwhatson]

Perhaps "this shit's so dope man" cretins can dump their rap-crap, listen to intelligent music and learn to speak decent English while they're about it? That would be so nice.

[erokthekid]

perhaps your douche

[manofhue]

4real whats the start all about uh?

[dOLOSTIMULUS]

@manofhue yeah i thought that was insane...it almost blew my (natural) high

[batosmak]

So much time and effort to get it where it needed to be. You need a high level of discipline to construct something like this. Great Peace!!!!

[richiecathrew]

What is that shite at the start

[erickliddell]

yeah i actually turned it off....like some months ago, just restumbled upon this

[taiyo06]

To give credit where it is absolutely due:

Bob James; composer, keyboardist.

Grover Washington Jr., sax

Joe Beck, guitar

Randy Brecker, trumpet

Ralph MacDonald, percussion

Gary King, bass

[manofhue]

wow bro

chill we know!

[Gordon713]

Classic Musicanship!!!!

[RoobRuckus]

this shits so dope thanks

[JohnnyTrotz]

pure dopeness man!!!

[erokthekid]

this song is real man. but just cause dude put some lame jay z track before the song doesn't give you a reason to go raggin on about rap. real hip hop is dope. it respects the music from which it came from.

[neothomist1275]

Jay-Z is for little boys.

Real men are fully developed and appreciate beauty and brains.

[erokthekid]

i don't think you understand my point bro. but i see what your getting at.

[manofhue]

true talk

[AugustusD78]

I understand how everybody feels about the song at the beginning, but I something occured to me. You know how a lot of rap songs have a piece of an old school cut at the beginning before the rap kicks in? I wonder if the opposite just happened.........

[hydepyon]

The rap at the beginning made me want to click on another video but I'm glad my patience paid off. I almost missed out on the real good music.

[xa25ja]

@hydepyon My sentiments exactly. What a truly awful way to preface a truly beautiful piece of music. "Piece of Mind" is masterful. Muhammad's drum work (especially cymbals) an object lesson in precision.

[thearchiveable]

@hydepyon

We need a proper version. Anyone?

[fayabraz]

+++++++++++++++++++++++5555555­

[btinsley1]

i hear enough cRAP in open car windows...why ruin a GREAT selection like this ?

[shareteddy]

Itn takes a shock like this to make you remember waht is really beautiful to llisten to and this is just plain sweet as sweet can now this i will cry about .shareteddy

[dsekou]

can someone scrape the sh-- off of the beginning of this masterwork ? it totally ruins the mood.

[raxorsedge77]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAbSSSSSSSSolutel­y Lovely !

[coachdoc2]

Please tell me why you put that bullshit rap song, on the begining of a masterpiece?

[woccs]

word

[Tony1TAKE]

This just takes me into a whole nother world

[Lapwings]

GREAT SONG brilliant artists!!

[jqfranklin]

Blow GROVER Blow

[Roelandvinken]

my favorite

to bad about that commercial rap in the beginning, cant you take that off?

[wisenatts]

@Roelandvinken The commercial rap intro is horrid. Please can you remove it because it serves no purpose whatsoever. I'm not bashing rap music but doesn't really belong on the intro of this beautiful song.

[oldclive]

excellent.

[pandaboi56]

Wow. That sum reel good moosic rite there. Nyce job man!
